An image of foggy trees with a color gradient over it. Over the image are words: “A Reader’s Guide To / Mage By Blood / Where Do Your Loyalties Lie?” with most of the text in white but “Mage By Blood” in red. There are also two art pieces, one of a golden wolf under a full moon and one of a magic glowing tree in red grass. They are both labeled with the words “Original Art” and there are also the words “Read More on Royal Road” and “Guide made in Canva by Theodore Snapdragon” in small text at the bottom.
Another image of foggy trees with a gradient in front of it. Over the image are the words “A kidnapped Mage Izak must survive being caught between two main-extremist factions, with his long-lost siblings on either side.” at the top. There are decorations of sparkly magical hands and a howling wolf in trans colors. There are then two titled sections of bullet pointed text. One reads “Featuring / OwnVoices Trans Main Character / Important sibling dynamics / Magical politics and intrigue / Lush, unique fantasy world / Queer relationships / Broken family drama / Fierce female characters / Lies, betrayals, and secrets” and the other one reads “In Five Songs / 1. “Daniel in the Den” by Bastille / 2. “Kill All Your Friends” by My Chemical Romance / 3. “Trouble” by Imagine Dragons / 4. “Control” by Halsey / 5. “All These Things That I’ve Done” by The Killers”
Another, new image of foggy trees with the same gradient over it. The title words “For Fans Of” are over the top of the image. There are four covers of books, each with accompanying captions. The captions are as follows: “The dark political fantasy world of Witch King by Martha Wells”, “The complex sibling relationships of Nettle and Bone by T Kingfisher”, The queer rep and magical mysteries of A Marvelous Light by Freya Marske”, and finally “The deadly magical politics of The Scholomance by Naomi Novak”. There are also the words “Read More on Royal Road” and “Guide made in Canva by Theodore Snapdragon” in small text at the bottom.
Another, new image of foggy mountain trees with a gradient and text over it. Above it is a title reading “Excerpt” and the text under it reads “Maybe, if I did well on this mission, they’d trust me enough to send me on more assignments outside of Headquarters. Maybe this could be the start of a new part of my life, one not so trapped by loneliness and grief. Maybe I could do new work traveling out in the provinces, not trapped behind a desk or overseeing the cells. Maybe.” There are also the words “Read More on Royal Road” and “Guide made in Canva by Theodore Snapdragon” in small text at the bottom.
